Hitchhike from San Gil to Villa de Leyva!!!
We ended up getting picked up by another semi hauling an empty fuel tank. The only problem was is he only had one seat available for passengers in his cab! A ride is a ride though, even if it was uncomfortable, it was entertaining! He took us for a few hours from San Gil to Barbosa, where again we didn't have to wait more than a few minutes to get a ride to Tunja with two guys in a four-door car! From Tunja we jumped in a cab thank goodness because it was about 2 km uphill. This was the only time in all of our hitchhiking that someone stopped and wanted to give us a ride for some money, half the price of the bus, maybe about two or three dollars for both of us for a hour ride....... Of course we said no!!! Haha
It wasn't long after a nice salesman picked us up and drove us the rest of the way. Within minutes on the street a lady and her son approached us and offered us a room in their hotel. They wanted about $50 US but we said no $25 and they took it! It was a no wonder why they did take it because we were the only ones staying there, but this place was more like a resort then a hotel, very very nice!
